Future CFB Calendar To Change | Ross Dellenger Reporting

The dumbass arsonists who set this calendar to begin with couldn’t foresee this scenario this year.

Now they get to play firefighter and fix it. Yay.

The coaches wanted this...now the don't want it.

There used to be just one NSD, in February. But then the coaches wanted an early signing day. Largely for two reasons:

(1) If a guy was "committed" before December then they didn't want to have to fight for another 2 months to get him signed. Just let him sign now.

(2) A December signing allowed the player to enroll early to go through winter workouts and spring practice.

The coaches also didn't like the spring portal window becuase it allowed the players more leverage over them (see Nico at Tenn). The just wanted one. But the coaches ALSO want to have their new transfers enrolled for spring ball. That means they have to be enrolled in school. At many schools that means a student has to be enrolled by, at the latest, early February. Thus, to satisfy the wishes of the coaches, that means January is the lone portal window.
